Chapter 386 Chapter 386 I noticed something was wrong with her
Shi Beichuan paused for a moment, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more sarcastic and mocking.
"You never took me to heart."
After he finished speaking, he walked into the bedroom without looking back and closed the door behind him.
Li Meng stood there in a daze, with tears in the corners of her eyes.
She raised her hand, gently wiped the moisture with her cool fingertips, and then tried hard to force a smile.
Li Meng did not enter the bedroom, but lay down on the sofa again. She exuded a cold and silent aura, like a wilderness in the cold winter, without any sense of life.
She was thankful that it was winter, otherwise the horrible bruises on her body would not be hidden at all.
When Shen Qinghuan arrived, it was Li Meng who opened the door.
She stared at Li Meng for a few seconds, then walked over, hugged her gently, smiled softly and said, "I'm glad you're okay! I'm glad you're okay!"
Shen Qinghuan didn't say how worried she was about Li Meng, nor did she say that she had been looking for her all night, let alone that she was too tired to move. She just told her, "I'm glad you're okay, I'm glad you're okay..."
At that moment, Li Meng's nose felt sore and tears seemed to well up.
But she still tried hard to hold it back and forced back the tears in her eyes.
"It's my fault. I thought he went back to his parents' house, so..."
Li Meng lowered her eyes and pulled the corners of her mouth helplessly. Obviously, the bitterness in her heart was unbearable for her, but she still kept silent about everything that happened last night and did not mention a single word.
"So, I didn't call her."
"Mengmeng, it's okay. Nothing else matters. As long as you're okay, that's all that matters!"
Seeing Li Meng safe and sound, Shen Qinghuan's heart, which had been hanging in the air all the way, finally settled down in his chest.
Li Meng nodded heavily, her eyes feeling sore.
Hu You suddenly thought of something. Shen Qinghuan glanced around, her pretty eyebrows tightly furrowed. "Where's Shi Beichuan? Where did he go?"
Li Meng lowered her eyes, a hint of self-mockery flashing in her eyes, "He said he was a little tired and went back to the bedroom to rest."
After hearing what Li Meng said, Shen Qinghuan's face changed slightly. She had already guessed that Shi Beichuan must be angry with Li Meng, blaming her for not telling him that she had returned home, making him look for her outside for a whole night in such a cold weather.
"Mengmeng, if he asks you to go to his parents' house next time, just refuse. There's no need to accommodate him."
"Well, I'm never going there again."
Li Meng smiled gently, rarely taking Shen Qinghuan's words to heart.
Shen Qinghuan stayed with Li Meng for a while until she felt a little sleepy, then she suggested going back.
Li Meng wanted to send her and Xu Dongyao downstairs, but she refused and asked Li Meng to have a good rest at home and go to the studio to work as soon as she was rested. She was almost unable to bear it anymore.
Li Meng forced a smile and said, "I understand. Don't worry! I'll go to work in two days."
Shen Qinghuan: "Then I'll wait for you."
Li Meng: "Yeah."
Before entering the elevator, Shen Qinghuan took Li Meng's hand and said, "Mengmeng, if you have anything, you must tell me. Just like last night, when you had a fight with Shi Beichuan, you could have come to me to complain about her instead of digesting those negative emotions alone."
"You must always remember that you are not alone. You still have me, and I will always be with you."
Li Meng's eyes suddenly turned red. She lowered her head, hummed softly, and said in a hoarse voice, "I know. You should go back quickly! When you get home, you should have a good sleep."
"And Lawyer Xu, thank you too!"
Xu Dongyao smiled lightly and said softly, "It's my duty! We are all friends."
The elevator door slowly opened and then slowly closed.
It was not until the elevator car started to descend that Li Meng turned around reluctantly and went back home.
She didn't eat much at Shi's house last night, and even now, she still doesn't feel hungry.
But she knew clearly that she was not alone, there was a strong and surviving child in her belly, she had to eat, she must eat, she had to live well with her child.
Li Meng went to the kitchen, took out the frozen shrimp dumplings from the refrigerator, and put twenty of them into the boiling water.
She stood quietly by the stove, waiting patiently.
After a while, the plump dumplings floated to the surface of the water. After a few minutes, she served out the shrimp dumplings.
Li Meng took out a can of hot sauce from the refrigerator and dipped the delicious dumplings in the hot sauce, eating them one by one.
As she ate, tears welled up in her eyes. She reached out and wiped away the moisture from her eyes.
On the other side, after Shen Qinghuan came out of Li Meng's house, he sat alone in the car for a long time.
She always felt that something was not right with Li Meng's mood, but she couldn't figure out what exactly was wrong. She racked her brains for a long time but couldn't figure it out, but that feeling followed her like a shadow.
Shen Qinghuan raised his head and looked through the car window at the closed window not far away.
“Bang, bang!”
Suddenly someone knocked on the car window.
Shen Qinghuan was stunned for a moment, her eyes falling on that familiar face. She quickly flipped the switch, and the driver's window slowly rolled down. "Lawyer Xu, why haven't you left yet?"
Xu Dongyao leaned forward slightly, placing one hand on the car window. "I was about to leave, but seeing that you hadn't started the car, I waited at the window for a while, and finally decided to get out and take a look."
After a pause, he asked hesitantly, "Are you worried that Shi Beichuan and Li Meng will quarrel?"
"Not really!" Shen Qinghuan shook his head, his eyes filled with confusion.
She looked dazed for a moment, then raised her eyes to look at Xu Dongyao, "Do you think there's something wrong with Li Meng?"
Xu Dongyao thought about it seriously, frowned slightly, and said, "I didn't notice! But it could also be because I don't know her. How about you go up and talk to her for a while?"
Shen Qinghuan let out a long breath and curled her lips helplessly, "Since she doesn't want to talk about it, it's useless for me to ask more questions. It's better to let her think things through herself."
Xu Dongyao: "Aren't you worried about her?"
Shen Qinghuan: "I am worried about her, but I am more worried about her condition. She looks very haggard."
After a pause, Shen Qinghuan considered and said, "It's possible that I'm overthinking it. I hope I am!"
Xu Dongyao lowered his eyes to look at Shen Qinghuan, his gaze focused on that slightly pale face, and said calmly: "Don't think too much, you should go back and have a good sleep. We can talk about other things after you wake up."
"Xu Dongyao."
Shen Qinghuan suddenly called him by his full name.
Xu Dongyao was slightly stunned, and it was as if someone had thrown a small stone into the lake of his heart, causing countless ripples to appear in an instant.
He calmed himself down and chuckled casually, "What's wrong with you? You've suddenly become so serious. I'm not used to it."
Shen Qinghuan: "Tell me, what does marriage bring to women?"
